Rock n’ Roll Bitches!

No wonder things are breaking

I’m not a petty person but it sure would be fun to see Bluesky get some love in the Apple App Store. Ok I’m petty af. Fuck twitter.

Beautiful. 👌

Enjoy the safe space. For now...

and of course I chose the second the site was broken as hell smh

those are all my alts. so, so many clever puns and themed accounts!

ICANT

People are looking for a safe place to engage without the constant trolling. I know I was...

👋🏻

OG twitter coming back

I wonder how many are here to see the shitposts around people fleeing here for some reason

can’t be 133 users/second… that would be close to 12 million/day and bsky is only growing at ~1 million/day

Curious how many are bots. When I signed up, it didn’t seem like it had a very strict process in place to prevent that from happening.

Lets go baby! Just signed up.

133/s is certainly impressive, but I imagine the real challenge lies in managing the current load from active users, pushing the servers to their limits.

RIP to the devs 💀 Servers are crying in binary code

Oh so that's why things are being weird right now

It is my greatest hope that this somehow causes Elon Musk to have a Kanye spiral. I wanna see a crash out that not even he or FouseyTube combined could match.

Twitter is a fucking hell hole just constant bot follows and radicalizing brain washing without break

Okay, that’s some growth ngl

Where can I find that counter?

I forgot this is blue sky for a sec and was expecting someone to yell transphobic stuff at my comment lol

Word. Hell, imagine being pissed at anyones sexuality that legitimately has no effect on you personally. They act like being gay or trans is some hot new trend. 🤷‍♂️

true but still hope he dies

Probably tRumpsters coming over to spread their hate.

The user numbers are like a pinball score now.

People on Twitter

Tom from MySpace would be so proud

don’t get hopes up i don’t want a threads 2.0 to happen

It's gonna fricking blow up at this rate!

How many of them are active users?

Nobody should be surprised to have some issues on here for the next few weeks. I'm sure having so many join so quickly can be overwhelming.

Ole Horse-for-a-Handjob Musk probably gonna sue everyone who deactivated.

Me looking at the raw data.

That's some serious server capacity right there. Speaking as a site reliability engineer I'm Uber jealous

That's 11 491 200 new users every day

Why are you bringing Him into this. That’s why I left X. You people are insufferable.

Damn. Now I need to write a program to add every user to a block list until I can verify…

Blue bug app is new blue bird app

Don't celebrate. This will devolve into X soon enough. People keep two accounts and we are starting to see some nonsense threads floating around here too. Those where only name-calling passed as discourse

Servers are crashing

The Xodus has begun

I didn’t expect the network effects to kick in so fast lmfao i love it though this place is getting so much more lively now

Server overload Back 🔙 again Sweet all welcome 🤗

Intelligent users are joining a better run less catastrophic platform with other intelligent users that believe in science and equality. I can dig it.

hell yea

Obligatory DO NOT FEED TROLLS reply. Block at will. Report when appropriate.

And about 40% of them qre bots dont quote me on that im no expert

how can you have .38 of a user 😭 but DANG it’s time for celebrities to hop on and really get the train going

Onion person

Definitely not bots, this place is the future

Shhhh. Don’t invoke the evangelicals.

true that dude—and the constant direct messaging from bots and scammer accounts

This is amazing but... I'm a bit pessimistic. No free service can grow indefinitely in popularity without becoming a mess of spam and ads... It's just inevitable.

I resisted, until today.

i wonder how many of those are bots compared to real users

Assuming we gain 1 million every 2 days, we would reach Twitter’s user base in 2-3 years (though I wouldn’t put my money on it)

nature is healing

holy fuck

have you seen how terrible twitter is

Who's the owner though?

20.7 million users and hopefully zero bots. (A dude can dream, and so far this place has been awesome.)

Tell them to stop. It's fucking up our shit.

Where is this data even available live?

Hasan needs to get on here.

X have competition now?

I suppose that’s why everything is kinda broken rn, way too much juice

Captain were at warp factor 9

Being real I used to clown on this place but guess it just needed Trump to win to become a real boy

Yep, unless they do something really cool. It's going to have a really short lifespan like many apps. I know it's been around but I mean the way it is.

Likely a temporary glitch, though who knows! On average it’s been hitting about 5-10 per second though has got up to about 15-20 over the last couple of weeks at times

Sorry, I was that 1 person that 1 second :(

And yet I only have 8 followers. Where y’all at?

The servers are handling this surprisingly well

is it anything like EXP Simulator

Easily becoming the NEW META

It was possible before musk closed the api

📌

Thanks!

Fuck, I wish they'd implement Bookmarks on this site sooner so I can save this and look at it periodically.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

My bad i made too many alts

I follow back Asap 🔥

what if you had no users and thus no server costs but companies kept buying ads to curry favor with you and the president

That is a VERY BIG Echo Chamber. Consequently, I'm LONG Pfizer (PFE), makers of Zoloft, and LONG Eli Lilly (LLY) makers of Prozac.

Is it just me or does it feel like its chugging, they having scaling issues?

Within the range of human hearing. You could actually hear account signups humming.

b-b-but daddy musk got rid of all the bots!! I know it's true because he and his cult said so! ☹️

I just signed up and checking out this platform. Left X, I don’t think they are missing me 😂

Network effect babbby. It's so hard to kill a social media platform but by God Elon musk has done it. He's so talented!

couldnt stand after seeing some grifter roleplaying as a trans girl at an alt account and fear baiting for engagement of their disgusting beliefs. this platform is purer than heaven

I just signed. No more twitter for me!

📌

Oh that's super light. It's been in the 500's a lot recently. All depends on time of day - most signups coming out of the US and UK so it shifts

No wonder it's glitchy today

So long Twitter, lmao.

one of my favorite podcasters @heathcummings.bsky.social for fantasy football is here AND built his recent listener questions section around bluesky user questions. It's spreading quickly now.

Wow.

At what kind number do we think Bluesky would be seriously harming X?

They definitely need to work on this server to make it a little bit smoother and have all the nice features that Twitter had. There's more to work on here

69% of users...nice

Bluesky ceo doing some jig around the office like he found a massive ass chunk of pure gold. Cos legit shouldn't be this easy to seep away at twitters userbase but bless Elon for making it happen

the bots are definitely here now also, i'm starting to see first name buncha numbers with only retweets, and i followed one by accident and got a "Hey" dm script from it maybe that's a sign of good social media health though

please let this kill twitter

I’d be shitting my britches if I was on their data engineering team

Many of us came here to push the guardrails of your fragile egos. We fully expect to be banned for telling the truth that leftists don’t like! Elon Musk is buying this platform soon!

More newskies to bully

that's actually insane

Please refrain from using the Lords name in vain. It triggers me
